you poll is not exact in the years specified: you have 2002 and 2003+, should be 2002 and 2005+
The 2005 tail lights will fit on the 2002 ES but a few connectors have to be changed and one bulb has to be omitted. It is not a 100% direct fit. The 2002 lights assembly has a black gasket around the edge as well and the 2005 does not. When mounted up, there will be a gap that the gasket would have filled. It was more than I wanted to do so instead I opted for stealth bulbs and lost the fried egg. I have about 4 or six bulbs left over if you want them.
